Baby's first halfstack, purchased for $200 with dishwashing money at the tender age of 16...this thing is an absolute beater and not at all a good amp in the traditional sense. Solid states of course don't respond well to being cranked, and this one doesn't cut particularly well at all unless it's dimed. Fine as a kid, of course, but sold this one to someone who needed a backup head on tour and can't say I missed it at all.

I bought this amp back in high school. It was my first big gear purchase, back when half stacks were a MUST! I've wanted to replace it for a while, but honestly, it keeps on rolling along and it does everything I need.

It sunds okay, but it fits intomy rig well, stupid name and all. The bass control is a big help for me. My rig has pretty defined lows and even with a healthy amount of level boost a lot of drives leave a vacuum in the bottom of my tone when engaged. I rarely use my 'custom badass etc.' since going MIDI, but it got me into the world of pedals with bass controls that boost or cut low end at a fixed frequency without substantially cutting highs like a lot of the boutique pedals with 2 or 3 band 'amp' tonestacks do. I don't want to fck with my amp's frequency response. I bought my amps because I like them as they are, I just wanna add boost and dirt.
